Thomas Massie just exposed that Trump is threatening to “ruin” his supporters’ businesses if they fund his campaign.
“I’m not talking about IRS audits.”
“It’s bigger than that.”
“Here’s what happens behind the scenes … ”
First, Trump allies are coercing Massie’s consultants into quitting his re-election campaign:
“Three of my consultants have quit on my campaign, all three for the same reason.”
“They were told: your other 30 clients will fire you if you keep working for Massie.”
“They make it hard to hire people.”
“I really love the consultants I got now, because they’re the ones who said: screw you, I’m gonna work for Massie brcause I believe in what he’s doing, and I’m good enough at my job, I’ll go find some other clients if you clowns fire me.”
Second, Trump allies are threatening to “ruin” Massie supporters’ businesses by abusing state power:
“I’ve got 15,000 donors across the United States. My average donation is $80.”
“Is that because I don’t want millionaires to give to a super PAC and to help me?”
“No. I’ll take all the help I can get.”
“The problem is, if you’ve reached some degree of success where you have a million-dollar disposable income, you probably can’t afford to tick off this administration, or they will come at your business.”
“You won’t get the permits you need to do the business.”
“Over the MAGA split and on foreign policy, there are people of great means … who could put money in my race and post up against the Israel First billionaires.”
“But they’re staying on the sidelines, because their business will get ruined.”
This is why Marjorie Taylor Greene left Washington.
The Trump administration is abusing its power and influence to crush populist, America First voices in the Republican Party.

I can't stand that Massie and Paul are turncoats so often and I'm vocal about it.
I also can't stand your divisive posting history of nitpickery crap when you could post about the great direction this administration is taking for all of us.
But that's just me.
From who? Confirmed when? Official record of? Verified sources? Facts aren't facts until they are confirmed, and there are verified sources, with actual names are provided. Other than that, it's hearsay.
You show no understanding of evil and I reject you premise Trump is wrong in his execution of the power of the presidency.
What exactly has Trump done wrong? Just becuase you don’t like his methods does not make it wrong.
Different is not automatically wrong.
Okay. I think the two KY scumbags you constantly spam FR with are ghey and love drugs and slave labor.
Have you ever stopped to think it's because your messages suck? Your message is the same one over and over again, which eventually turns people off to the messenger. Your articles are this site's comedy intermission.
Why are you so effeminate?
RandFan: "Was Goldwater a conservative Republican?"

Sorry, no sympathy for RINOs, Demoncrats, and Demoncrat sypmpathizers.
If he is complaining about “allies” then the report posted recently on FR that he going to win the primary was misleading. You won’t change minds here in your quest to undermine President Trump; you might try on the lib site you came from.
“”Hopefully he will be voting 0% of the time when he is
beaten in the GOP Primary in 2026.””

LOL.... Exactly!
"Why are you so effeminate?"
"Because too many are going after me"
Good to see you, been awhile ;^)
Massie’s mouth is rotten. Anyone know whether his voting record is just as bad? What percentage of his votes go MAGA? I ask because an 80% MAGA voter would be better than a 0% Democrat, if that’s our only choice in his district.
Maybe he can get some help from Ro Khanna?
Maybe he can get some help from Ro Khanna?
Easy for you to say, your side already did the wrong.
“”It is believed that it is Paul’s wife...””

Oh, my. Now that would make perfect sense and would explain this poster’s penchant for whining for Rand and against Trump.
It depends if it’s true or not. Sounds made up.
Thomas Massie has caused me to do a Limbaugh with his name. I call him Thomas Messy. He is fouling the MAGA nest and stinking up the place with his careless antics. If he continues, he will be cocked, plucked and stocked like the bird brain that he is.
